LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Your Daily Dispatch of Celebrity Shenanigans

Alec Baldwin Fancies Himself A NYC ‘Housewife’ – But Just One: “The Real Housewives of New York City” appears to have made an impression on Alec Baldwin – well, at least one of them! According to The New York Daily News’ Gatecrasher, the actor ran into “Housewives” Ramona Singer, Luann de Lesseps and Kelly Bensimon at the Grand Slam Tennis Exhibition at the Ross School in East Hampton, New York – but Alec was more concerned with why Bethenny Frankel was M.I.A. “He was saying he had absolutely no interest in hanging out with them,” a source on the scene claimed. “But he kept inquiring if Bethenny was coming. He said he really wanted to meet her and even complained that, of course, the one woman he wanted to meet wasn’t coming. He wasn’t even being discreet about how interested he was.” We’d like to think Alec and Bethenny could grow old together drinking Skinnygirl margaritas well into their golden years – but Bethenny has a man in her life – and Alec doesn’t exactly seem like a Skinnygirl margarita kind of guy.

Hey Mr. DJ Jesus – Where’s Your Crowd?: Jesus Luz might play a DJ in Madonna’s new video for “Celebration,” but that doesn’t mean he has the skills to fill the floor. According to The New York Post’s Page Six, Jesus’ recent DJ gig at Pacha, in Buzios, Brazil was a bust. “Guests at the club said his set list wasn’t captivating at all, and the dance floor was almost empty,” a source claimed. Don’t worry, Jesus, people might not like what’s on your iPod, but you still get the award for Madonna’s hottest man-cessory.

‘Potter’ Stars In Disguise: “Harry Potter” stars Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint had to go to extreme measures to check out Britain’s Reading Festival over the weekend. According to People, the boy wizards showed up in matching biker helmets and goggles in order to blend in with the music-loving Muggles. Where was Professor McGonagall with her stellar transfiguration spells when they needed her?!

Punky Brewster Is Back!: Do you still have Punky Power? Soleil Moon Frye sure does! Check out the actress recreating her iconic character 20 years later. We’re glad to see Punky again, but where are Cherie and Margeuax?
